watching your children grow in miss you in waves. as you're walking out of this. easy. mind share that's where the the playing field the battlefield of the funny person or. war right now i mean whether you know it trickles down to bullets and bombs and guns and stuff i mean that's immaterial we're already out war right now it's being played. if you wake up in the morning we feel it was a massive headache is because china and america are. a palestinian teenager was killed and dozens of other protests during clashes with israeli soldiers in the west bank and gaza.

. only. a mistake. that. was. was probably. dozens more palestinians were injured and over friday's clashes over the past forty eight hours israeli soldiers have conducted raids in the ramallah area also making dozens of arrests the latest escalation started off the two israeli soldiers were killed in a shooting in a west bank settlement in one of gaza thousands gathered on the israeli border local reporter uma was there with us for us with the details. today in the thirty eight friday in the great march of return we are here at shifa hospital the

casualties have french from live ammunition explosive bullets rubber bullets and gasification as well as injuries by gas canisters that were fired on them this friday comes after today israeli soldiers were killed by an unknown palestinian soon after the israeli forces in nell's trauma less city as a closed military zone prime minister netanyahu or did what he called axillary to demolish an old homes for those who israel considers as tourists it's in ya would legalize thousands of jewish settlement homes that were built without an israeli prison on palestinian homes in the occupied west bank israeli prime minister gave a fiery speech on thursday vowing to avenge the deaths of the two soldiers in the west bank. good our guiding principle is that whoever attacks us and who have a choice to attack us will pay with his life i really mean and we will find them. i
9:04 pm
call it the deal to discuss discuss this with palestinian politician with stuff about gucci he says israel is using excessive force against peaceful demonstrators how can further escalation of violence in ramallah be avoided in your opinion it can only be a avoided if the israeli army gets out of our cities and if they remove the brigades very kids and if they stop the attacks of the settlers on our civilian population that's the first step but then the second step should be immediate initiation of a process of ending occupation and there's been no apparent progress if we look at the last six months of the day of rage protests. is it an idea to change strategy perhaps the palestinians have changed the strategy the palestinians have adopted the nonviolent resistance and the marches that are taking place in peaceful nonviolent and all forms of violence have been excluded and we have agreed with
9:05 pm
each other on a strategy that commits to nonviolent resistance but when each peaceful demonstration is left with the israeli army shooting the people and killing them of course there will be palestinian reactions to that and in the form of resistance to occupation i don't think it would be a grave mistake to if we're to between the palestinians and israelis in this regard you have to remember that what we have here is palestinian civilian population in the west bank that is totally an armed in confrontation with the israeli army and israeli settlers who are armed to the teeth. kosovo's parliament has voted to build its own army and president has d'arcy welcomed the move. the creation of the course of our army is the best gift for the end of the year season under the plan kosovo security force would be converted into a combat ready military force that would have five thousand that active soldiers as
9:06 pm
well as three thousand reservists however it would take at least ten years to complete the plan earlier this month serbia warned that it might consider military intervention of course of zero went ahead with the move. i'm hoping we would never have to use the army but this is certainly one of the options on the table as we do not want to watch the ethnic cleansing of kosovo declared independence back in two thousand and eight the move that serbia still doesn't recognize as the formation of such an army violates the agreements which brought the course of war and kosovo war to an end to start with russia's express the law as well over kosovo as military plans call in the province of pockets of instability the foreign ministry accuse the european union of failing to support dialogue between serbia and kosovo and the secretary general of nato also criticized the move saying the alliance might reconsider its corporation with course of a well the transition of the cost of a security force is in principle and matter for kosovo to decide we have made clear
9:07 pm
this move is ill timed nato supports the development of the kosovo security force under its current mandate with a change of mandate the north atlantic council will now have to read examine the level of nato as engagement with the course of a security force meanwhile the united states has backed kosovo as move america's a master to the region has tweeted that kosovo must think gage with its minority community and nato allies in its transition period and also pledged america's support throughout the process of political writer data johnston says the creation of the cost of a wall me would increase u.s. influence over the province. well he said it's a little make the army the first thing is that the u.s. ambassadors are jerks will be there with you wherever that means which sounds like a good use cursive a little provoke a war because you know it is will be there with you this is simply
9:08 pm
a gesture to emphasize percival status as an american colony because the base there isn't a nato base it's an american base and and you look and wish to learn there are american flags all over the place. if it came to a crank or two in serbia and kosovo militarily. because a course of the army wouldn't have a chance so it's still will depend on nato and the american army it can't have any significant military it's simply to trade or attach itself to the americans and the americans are willing to let a terrorist itself to the united states. and nothing about it i mean they've violated every possible rule if we go back to the beginning one of the agreement was that the kosovo liberation army which was not an
9:09 pm
army and interesting as this is brittle who would not become an army but that's exactly what he's doing because her deny as it's a perfect country now is the same people. it's one joint hurdle after another for the battle the british prime minister to resign may address today sense of obvious confidence vote from our own party she is now back in the line of that of brussels she's desperately looking for anything she can take back from a meeting of in humanist as which might win over her skeptical parliament plan and as i say sort of has more details. what a week four to resubmit it really was the best of times it was the worst of times you know on one hand she managed to plow through that vote of no confidence that would triggered by her own party here in westminster but on the other hand she continues to be stuck in this massive deadlock when it comes to the biggest job she now has to get done which is bracks said and all of this while sort of jumping like
9:10 pm
a tennis ball from one court to another going from westminster to the e.u. back to westminster to the e.u. and despite all this moving around not a lot of results seem to be getting produced tangible ones with lots and lots of roadblocks getting in her way you've had a trying week. what's been worse. that something this week. one of the reports. you should believe everything you reason what was it was. the malcontents at home or was it been the you both bullies over here negotiations like this are always tough the risk difficult times and as you get close to the very end then you get even more difficult what what drives me to can carry on doing this and making sure we deliver is that this is what's right for the british people well though that latest hurdle was in fact in brussels bound but also back at home it seems that for two recent may everybody is on happy with
9:11 pm
something at this point you know for some people are saying not her deal let's now move on to the heart bragg's it others are saying you know let's remain because things are going so badly at this stage others are saying let's have a second referendum because things are going so badly and you know we've seen earlier today progress of protesters trying to block a bridge in westminster so the british people that to recently is trying to do her best who are seem to have a lot so lots of mixed feeling on this issue and that in its own right seems to be the biggest problem that brussels now has with all of this because they've. in saying to theresa may we need you to stop being so vague we need you to go back and get specifics from the house of parliament i was following. the second bush. of commons. that there was a deep mistrust. when it comes to the huge. issues for future relations. we have to bring don't do time which this question of
9:12 pm
whether theresa may is too vague or not ended up being part of an exchange between her and the president of the european commission and ended up grabbing quite a bit of attention in the media. he looks very angry when you respond to shankar earlier today what did you say to him and did he admit that he had called you mentalists well first of all i had a robust discussion with him because i think that's the sort of discussion you're able to have when you've developed a working relationship and you work well together when you use that particular phrase even talking about the general level of debate i'd. prefer to hear to do overall. the debate. well whether these are robust
9:13 pm
discussions as theresa may has described them are actually going to end up leading somewhere remains to be seen whether they're going to end up being able to reach some kind of solutions or whether the u.k. is going to be launched towards a new deal bracks it's something that's increasingly being talked about remains to be seen and there's really not very much time left to see which one is going to end up being. america's national security advisor has criticized the activities of russia and china on the african continent so bolton was unveiling a new u.s. strategy for the region. across the continent russia advances its political and economic relationships with little regard to the rule of law or accountable and transparent governance it continues to sell arms and energy in exchange for votes at the united nations china uses bribes opaque agreements and the strategic use of debt to hold states in africa captive to beijing's wishes and demands
9:14 pm
so you just quote haustus osment of russia and china's roles in africa but i guess if takes a closer look now at america's own vision for the continent. this regarding that it reads more like a declaration of war than a strategy and this plan is for the good of the africa promises john bolton this coming from a guy whose boss trump infamously referred to several african nations as something that i can't mention on there the predatory practices pursued by china and russia stunt economic growth in africa threaten the financial independence of african nations and pose a significant threat to u.s. national security interest its interest in logic so when china or russia or someone else you don't like lends an african nation money that's debt colonialism almost financial slavery when america does it it's investment for africa's own
9:15 pm
good if mentioning is that russia's trade with the continent pales into insignificance when compared to the us or china look at this rely on this highway hydro power station all built with chinese investment aging is raising entire cities with more to come china is willing to provide another sixty billion dollars in support of africa to government assistance investment and financing the financial institutions and enterprises the phrase actions speak louder than words is entirely a political here the chinese leader xi jinping has visited africa nine times during his tenure trump once sent his wife but what the united states might lack in tact it more than makes up with guns american troops are stationed in fifty out of fifty four african nations it has thirty four military sites thousands and
9:16 pm
thousands of soldiers across the entire continent and a long history of military interventions china has. one base in djibouti russia has none american troops are there for african's own good washington would say speaking of which remember the whole chinese and russian money dad american money good thing well it turns out not so much our new foreign assistance strategy will ensure that all us foreign aid in every corner of the globe vance's u.s. interest countries that repeatedly vote against the united states in international forums or take actions counter to u.s. interest should not receive generous american foreign aid john bolton they does and gentleman man who unveiled america's new africa plan so much for financial independence africans good luck we need to move it to consider what really africa
9:17 pm
needs it's not really what china ney's want a russian aid or us need everyone china russia or all of france has the kind really contribution to number one the infrastructure development and also to gave technology to grow their agriculture and their manufacturing base that's something that command a moral high no simply an album and the other all of this continent it doesn't really know how these people to grow their industry to earn better life distinct or pounding to russia or to to china for some of the you know allegedly bad behavior that doesn't really help the picture so it is up to the africans will decide if. press freedom organizations have
9:18 pm

9:26 pm
everybody is entitled to you know here's my radical opinion i think we're entitled to free speech i think they're entitled to say this is what we think the rules should be and i think everybody else who's involved in that should be entitled to agree to disagree to say well actually i would like a change to this was something you haven't mentioned that i find to be quite problematic i think that you know we know that there are always going to be. limits in society about what is and isn't ok to be said in certain forms and certain platforms and that's absolutely fine what's the matter with us we're used to be tough we're becoming a bunch of little snowflake trigger of trigger warning then heard and b it's listen to what we're talking about a comedian but by the way if there was no rules or what the heck was he being asked to sign we are losing our sense of humor we're losing our guts and our spine we're losing who we are removing our personality so keep it up comics keep it up you'll be out of a job in six months. that's it from

. i don't really talk about it much but the truth is every year there's a bunch of soldiers who decide rather not be involved in shooting strangers so that the koch brothers or axon can have a little more oil you know who knows why they would make such a decision when basically these soldiers do something a horrifying something that has to be court martialed for something often called treasonous they think for themselves. i mean they do that why would they do that to us nothing is more frightening to our endless war machine than military grunts who think for themselves and others they supposed to ask somebody if they can use the bathroom there's a post as for permission to wear a different color sock ok between these are big job dude's you have to get permission to switch from boxers to tidy whiteys. one of the more notable objectors this year was spencer ripon
